Sen. Martin Connor, D-Brooklyn, who is facing a primary challenge from Schumer staffer Daniel “The Kid” Squadron, will make his past five years of tax returns available to the press for review on July 8, 2008. He’s calling on Squadron to do the same.

“I am looking forward to engaging in a campaign that is based upon facts and truth, not mischaracterizations and exaggerations,” Connor explained. “The voters deserve nothing less, and the release of both our tax returns will be a good start.”

Senator Connor will also make available for review, in unredacted form, his filings with the Legislative Ethics Commission for the past five years. He is likewise calling on Squadron to do the same with his filing with the same Commission after it has been filed.
